The Garden
Posted: Wed Mar 15, 2006 8:04 amThe Tomato Garden
An old Italian man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his
tomato
garden, but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son,
Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter
to his son and described his predicament.
Dear Vincent, I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be
able to plant my tomato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be
digging up a garden plot. If you were here my troubles would be over. I know you
would dig the plot for me. Love Dad
A few days later he received a letter from his son.
Dear Dad, Not for nothing, but don't dig up that garden. That's where I
buried the BODIES. Love Vinnie
At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug
up
the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old
man
and left.
That same day the old man received another letter from his son.
Dear Dad, Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That's the best I could
do
under the circumstances. Love Vinny
